The hotplate

Clean the hotplate top using a mild abrasive such as 'Cif'. Take care not to damage the spark electrodes. If the spark electrodes are damaged the burners will not light.

You can remove the pan supports, burner caps and burner crowns to clean them. Again take care not to damage the spark electrodes.

If any food spills during cooking you can place the pan on another burner to finish cooking. Then you can remove the dirty parts and clean them before the spill 'burns on'.

Clean the burner crowns by soaking them in very hot soapy water. You can remove any stubborn stains by scouring with a soap filled pad such as 'Brillo'. If you look after the burner crowns in this way they will stay reasonably clean. However the surface will dull with time.

Aluminium based saucepans can leave shiny metal marks on the pan supports. Clean the pan supports regularly to remove the marks using a mild abrasive like 'Cif' with a soft scourer. For more stubborn marks you can use a soap-filled pad such as 'Brillo'.

After cleaning the appliance parts, dry them thoroughly before you put them back.

When replacing hotplate burner parts

1.Crown to body (Do not try to force the crown on to the body).

Make sure that the hole in the crown is over the electrode. Check that the two longer location pegs sit in the slots in the body. When the crown is in this position let it fall freely on to the body. Check that the crown can be moved slightly from side to side.

2.Cap to crown

Place cap centrally on the top of crown (enamel side up). Move sideways and front to back to check the cap is properly fitted.

3.Check for ignition

If a burner will not light then you need to check the crown and cap positions.
